Q1: What is the primary application field for BASF K2960 GP Pigment?
A: BASF K2960 GP Pigment is specifically developed for use in high-performance industrial coatings and plastic coloration, particularly where excellent dispersibility, thermal stability, and consistent batch-to-batch color fidelity are required.
Q2: Is BASF K2960 GP Pigment suitable for food-contact plastics?
A: While K2960 GP is not pre-approved for direct food-contact applications, it may be considered for indirect food-contact or non-migrating systems when formulated and processed under strict regulatory oversight; end-use compliance must be verified by the compounder or converter per applicable regional requirements.
Q3: How should BASF K2960 GP Pigment be dispersed in polymer matrices?
A: Optimal dispersion is achieved using standard compounding equipment such as twin-screw extruders; pre-mixing with carrier resin or masterbatch dilution is recommended to ensure uniform distribution and minimize agglomeration, especially in engineering thermoplastics.
Q4: What are the key handling and storage recommendations?
A: Store in original sealed packaging in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight and sources of heat or moisture; avoid prolonged exposure to high humidity to preserve flowability and prevent agglomeration during processing.
